@stressinsteph I’m planning on submitting two. I only have two good poems, anyway. xD
Anyone willing to share and critique pieces?
Does anyone know how popular design arts is? I can’t ever find much about it.
@greetings12 Do you just wanna find details about submissions or do you wanna find past winners’ work?
@stressinsteph they uploaded some past portfolio for design on the website though its always awesome to see more winning work…
I think I’m looking more for details. I’ve seen little about design and was just curious for what its like and how many people actually enter in that category since it doesn’t seem as popular as others
@MandomeLife Congratulations! 
As a current applicant, I’d love to know how you were notified and when you received notification of your award. Thank you!
I just submitted by application-- two poems! Feeling nervous but also hopeful
Congratulations @stressinsteph! Lol, I’m really about to put my procrastination skills to the test… still have to pretty much start and finish one of my creative essays/memoirs…
Application due date y’all!
@lilylilyshah I was notified on November 19th via email. Those selected as finalists last year were called throughout the week prior.
@greetings12 I’d love to give you more details about the Design Arts track, including more examples of winning work. Feel free to send me a PM. Just make sure to start your YA application either way – what you have may be what they’re looking for.
just submitted my work to youngarts with three hours to spare too but hey I was making sure my writing was as perfect as I could get it. Especially sense I didn’t enter another discipline like I planned but I’m not complaining I’m proud of my work. And want my decision now.
@Pahalia congratulations!!! I KNOW! The waiting is the worst part…
@MandomeLife Thank you!
I just realized that the title on one of the my pieces was “Half-full or Half-Empty” on the “title” area but “Half-empty or Half-full” on the document… would that be an issue? They wouldn’t disqualify it would they? I proofed it five million times and of course something had to happen with the title 
Does anybody want to share their writing/art?
@annamatisse I think that it should be fine. If the judges disqualify it for something that minor, I would be surprised…and maybe since you didn’t notice it, they won’t either.
Thanks @lilylilyshah
any musicians/vocalists out there? My daughter just submitted for both Singer/Songwriter and Jazz voice. Fingers crossed but it’s SO competitive! Love this thread and I hope that as people are notified they will post here. Good luck everyone!
My daughter sent in for classical voice. Best of luck to your D @SpartanDrew. The next month wait is difficult.
Fabulous @followurheart!! Best of luck to your D as well. The wait will be brutal especially given the months of prep for the auditions. What year is your D?
